Do you love sewing? I do, and I love sharing my sewing pattern reviews here. I started by sewing for my kids 6 years ago after my twins were born and I found myself needing something to help me relax as I now had 5 kids.

The funny thing is that when I started my sewing journey, I never thought I’d sew for myself but I got the bug and now I have a completely 100% handmade wardrobe. I have sewn everything from mens coats, trousers, shirts to little girls dresses, leggings and everything in between.

I am passionate about using sewing magazines like Burda, Knipmode, Patrones and La Maison Victor in my sewing as well as indie pattern companies and Vogue, McCalls, New Look, Simplicity paper patterns.
